I can see no reference to that in the report. Where are you drawing your information from?

But it's not half of 200,000 is it? It was half of those in the Rotherham area which was the article you quoted from.
Do you have hard data on the numbers of Roma (for example) that are claiming JSA that is at odds with the DWP / ONS figures or is it just an assumption on your part?
If you are disputing their figures I suggest you take it up with them rather than "probably" factoring anything.
It's helpful to deal with facts rather than probables.

Interesting statistics none the less.
